Summer dances, space and earth entwine,
With heated coral velvets and currant wine,
In sunset is how Sol bows and takes His leave,
Thus, His lover ascends in Her night weave
Where verdant grounds in dark align,
As Nyx doth claim Her right divine

dVerse ~ Poets Pub | Quadrille #204 – Summertime, and the Poeming is Easy

For this week’s prompt, Dee (aka WhimsyGizmo) has perusing a pithy, prestigious little nugget of a quadrille, a poem of exactly 44 words not including the title, but must include some fun or fanatic use of the prompt word “Summer”.
I love your rhyme scheme here, and the personification of sun and moon. Gorgeous.
Thank you, Dee!
Lovely classical style entwinning your words, which have real personality, infused with the he/she identity.
Thank you!
Love how nature entwines with the sun and moon aligning in the sky.
Thanks, Grace.
Love this! Beautifully woven together.
Thanks!
I love that you focused on ‘twilight in summer’, Raivenne, my favourite time of day; the rhythm and rhyme are perfect for summer dances and mythology.
I love mythology; Sol and Nyx seemed perfect for it, thanks!
You’re most welcome!
your “currant wine,” line really struck a chord – so visual in this mix of day and night in summer
Thanks, Laura.
I agree. There’s a divinity in summer nights. ❤
There really is, thanks!
What a gorgeous write, especially ‘currant wine’!
Yes❣️ That jumped out at me too, Punam… This is lovely!
